Audiolab 7000N Play Streamer/DAC
$719.00 – $899.00
The new 7000N Play builds upon that legacy building introduction of wireless audio streaming to the brand with enhancements and improvements to match the step up from the established 6000 series to the new class-leading, 7000 series.
Bringing hi-resolution wireless audio streaming to any home audio system, the 7000N Play further expands on the multi-format, multi-platform, multi-source compatible DTS Play-Fi system, now with Apple AirPlay 2 compatibility.
Wi-Fi® Technology
Featuring DTS Play-Fi® Technology, music can be streamed over your wireless network in high-resolution format and can be easily expanded to a multi-room system if required. You can stream from any source on your wireless network, including smartphones, tablets or PCs as well as a NAS Drive.
DTS Play-Fi App
Besides accessing your personal music library, the DTS Play-Fi platform offers a wealth of leading online music channels from around the globe. Spotify, Tidal, HD Tracks, Deezer, Amazon Music, Napster, KKBox and Sirius XM, to name a few. Browse a radio guide with thousands of stations and podcasts, or stream from a home media server with DLNA compatibility. And thanks to the aforementioned AirPlay 2 adoption, the 7000N Play also now offers further compatibility for Apple Music users and other non-Play-Fi native platforms by way of Apple Airplay 2 connectivity, offering all of the additional convenience of the Apple platform.
Digital Screen
Sporting a new 2.8″ (48 x 64mm) IPS LCD screen with a detailed but simple to use GUI, the audiolab 7000N Play offers a vivid representation of information including streaming service, system settings, format, folder, track details and other data. It can even be set to display a VU meter in ‘analogue’ or ‘digital’ form, showing real-time decibel levels for the left and right channels for the analogue outputs – a satisfying graphical representation of the music as it plays.
An Endless Supply Of Music
The sheer versatility, operational simplicity and wide-spanning service options from the audiolab 7000N Play make it a very appealing wireless audio streaming solution. Just like the award-winning 6000N Play; for some, it is the perfect way to stream music from the likes of Spotify, Tidal and Deezer, with all the additional functionality of Play-Fi including multi-room audio. Not to mention the expansive AirPlay 2 provisions.
